Just saw this in another post. Why can't we have it? Uh oh, have been eating a few pieces a day.

I don't think there is anything wrong with it. I mean how is it different then any other candy? Unless you are watching your sugar, snack it up!

i've seen this pop up in BNB before, best thing i can find online that says this is https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/...orice-fears-children-diseases-later-life.html

but i'm thinking it's at the same level as nuts in pregnancy may affect offspring's risk of developing asthma.

which i'm taking with a pinch of salt and just keeping to in moderation it's fine. can't swear off anything they tell you is bad

Sorry but it is just another one of those things being said to scare us LOL... I wish that people would just stop... I mean there are obvious things that we should NOT being doing while pregnant but some of these things are just silly and do not need to be said.... we have enough stress without adding this to it!! Munch away hun!!
